This was pretty simple. My husband loved this more than I did! He was getting tired of the same old ground beef recipes that I had. Thanks for the recipe.

Very good and pretty quick. Added a little garlic to the burger while cooking, a can of corn with other ingredients, doubled the cheese, added the other half in the middle somewhere. Will make this again for sure.

My family thought it was great! I added garlic and rosemary while browning the beef and I added a layer of cheese inside. I would definately make this again and again.

I doctored this a little by adding mushrooms and sour cream to the sauce. This was a good meal and will be added to my recipe box.

I thought this recipe was tasteless. I even added a can of mushrooms, green beans, and sour cream. I will not make this again.

A great, filling homestyle recipe. I end up making this when I've run out of ideas (or ingredients!)

After much doctoring I still found this recipe to be rather bland and highly greasy.

This recipe was great. I added some carne asada flavoring to the ground beef to give it an extra kick. I then made it basically like a lasagna - potatoes, sauce, meat, cheese & then repeated again. My husband and kids really liked it. Will do again soon!

I was a little disappointed. Prep time took longer than anticipated, and once I put everything together, I thought to myself, "That's it?" I found myself scrambling to add more ingredients to help it out. However, the end result was fine, and my family still ate it. So I guess you could deem it somewhat successful.

Great recipe. It looked a little funky coming out of the oven, but it tasted great. The two things I added was sauted garlic before I browened the beef and cheddar cheese to the sauce mixture. I would also add more beef next time. The huby & kids ate it up!

We are surely talking "meat and potatoes" here but it was good. Very filling and most inexpensive to make. I added a can of green beans and next time will include a can of mushrooms also. I was out of onion so used onion flakes instead. Good stuff, serve with warm biscuits and a salad and you're set!

I made this for my husband and myself last night, because the snow we got on the weekend put me in a "comfort-food" mood. Like others, I added extra seasonings to suit our tastes. I sauteed fresh mushrooms and the onions with the meat, and added three crushed garlic cloves and a tablespoon of Minor's beef broth concentrate. I also covered the casserole for the first hour, which kept it nice and moist and helped the potatoes cook properly. I then removed the lid for 15 minutes, which helped set up the dish nicely. Last, I didn't add any cheese at all, and didn't miss it. I felt that cheese would only make it greasy and heavier than I would have been able to stand. Granted, it's not gourmet, but it was created with kids in mind, after all. It was definitely something I'll make again when I feel like comfort food.

Well, I knew going in this would be bland, so, I just kept adding garlic salt and pepper between the layers. It turned out ok. I will put in some fresh mushrooms in the meat mixture next time and maybe add a few more spices to zing it up a little. Thank goodness I wasn't pressed for time because it took a full hour and the potatoes still weren't done.

Yummy & easy! I made a vegetarian version by using faux hamburger soy crumbles in place of hamburger. We also microwaved the potatoes for 5 minutes. Just enough to give them a jump start in the cooking process; then sliced them.

This was OK. Warm, filling, and easy to make with ingredients on hand. I cooked the potatoes first, fried chopped onion and green pepper along with the hamburger, and added soy sauce and about 1/4 cup sour cream to the sauce. Will make again when short on time.

I gave this recipe 3 stars because as it is, it's fair. I doctored it up and it turned out really good. I used 5 med-large potatoes and cooked them in the microwave until they were done. Once cooled, I peeled and thinly sliced them. I fried the hamburger with onions and fresh garlic, added lots of pepper, Mrs. Dash, basil, beef bouillion and half a head of cabbage, roughly diced. I mixed the cream of mushroom soup with milk, sour cream, mexican cheese dip, pepper, beef bouillion, onion flakes, garlic, chili powder and Mrs. Dash. Inbetween layers of potatoes and meat mixture, I added lots of cheese and the sauce. Baked it 1 hour and 10 minutes at 375. It turned out pretty good!

Very good, my whole family loved it. I added 1 more can of mushroom soup, a little worcestershire to soup mixture, and cheese on top as suggested by other. This is going to be a monthly favorite at my house!

Simple and satisfying. Used Cream of Mushroom with Garlic Soup as it caught my eye and also sliced some fresh mushrooms on the top prior to baking. UPDATED REVIEW = Have probably made this a dozen times or more now but last time fried the onions WITH the ground beef as per other reviewer's and topped with Velveeta. Marvelous!
